Summary

Listen to episode 622 of the Inspirational Living Podcast: Building a Foundation for Success in Life. Edited and adapted from Heading for Victory; or, Getting the Most Out of Life; by Orison Swett Marden.

Inspirational Podcast Excerpt: The foundation of all success, and of all happiness, lies in robust health. Health means confidence and assurance. It means hope and courage. It means faith in one’s self and faith in others. Health means virility, forcefulness, masterfulness. It means larger opportunity and greater possibilities. Health means initiative, efficiency, success and happiness. In short, everything we live for is so dependent upon good health that it becomes our first duty to keep ourselves in strong physical condition.
